Zone of the Enders HD Collection, Jehuty in 1080p

[Mickeymac92]

For the record, while I'm excited for this, I'm mostly getting it as my "Mecha game" for the year, since I wanted a Mecha Christmas. Might get a Gundam model, too...except I'm kinda low on space for them. :P

For PS3 owners:  Any glitches?  I've been seeing some reviews on Amazon talking about major slowdown and even crashes mid-game, in 2 in particular.  Some have even refused to play it without a patch.  But maybe they're just whiny.

For those who got the special edition:  How are the art book and the soundtrack?  Are they worth the extra $20?  (Well, $40 now, technically....)

I haven't encountered any glitches, but there are FPS drops and, in general, the FPS is lower than the original release.  Supposedly the patch speeds it up "some," but I've not downloaded it and can't confirm or deny.

The artbook is quite nice, especially compared to other artbooks in major game releases.  The CD "Soundtrack" is 10 tracks, and they're all remixed.  That Beyond the Bound Remix though...mmm!

[Cyril]

So, I found the graphical errors some people were talking about, and, as stated above, they're mostly in ZoE2.  The background has some annoying seams and breaks, but, more importantly, there's one area in the game where the faces/eyes/noses on the animated faces are just big black boxes. I've encountered some bad slowdown a few times too, in both games, and ZoE2 runs generally much slower than the PS2 version.

It's not a horrible port by any means, and not nearly as bad as SH:HD, but I think it is worth mentioning that the problems are there.

I ordered the PS3 version from Amazon.ca but for some reason it was delayed until December.
Thinking about canceling.

That "Naked Jehuty" figure looks pretty awesome. And I'm not into collecting figures.

Consider me intrigued, still too soon for interested.

Meanwhile, bad news:

. . .but it has also put a halt to the Enders’s Project which was announced last year as a Zone of the Enders sequel. The entire team behind the project has been dismantled, as Kojima would like to re-evaluate the franchise before moving forward, he says. Furthermore, he also wants to re-evaluate fans by asking once more, whether they would still like to see a Zone of the Enders sequel.

What about a new Boktai?

...no? Okay. :(

Damn, they really were depending on the HD sales for this, weren't they? Figures I actually bothered to get it this time too, though I wonder if fixing the issues will really change anything here.
